Post-Mortem on NIE 36. 1-57:
The Outlook for Egypt and the Nasser Regime,
dated 12 November 1957
I. Findings
While available intelligence on Egypt was generally sufficient
in quantity and quality for the preparation of this estimate, we would
have benefited by more information on the following points:
a. the terms of Egyptian-Soviet Bloc arms and
economic arrangements, as well as the number of Bloc
personnel in Egypt, and the kinds of activity in which they
are engaged;
b. the degree of proficiency which the Egyptian
armed forces have achieved in use of Bloc arms and
equipment;
C, the nature and motivation of present and possible
future opposition to Nasser- -especially in the armed forces;
d. the nature and extent of Egyptian influence and
clandestine activities in Arab and nearby African states.
The members of the IAC are requested to take such action as
they deem appropriate to deal with this problem.
